I had to delete user.js with its spoof useragent :-

which I had used to access sites which would not accept Mozilla /
Netscape 6 / ?? Beonex
Then downloaded the xpi
Installed Java JRE 1.3.1
Copied Java J2SE ver 1.4 plugin to Beonex plugin directory
Uninstalled JRE 1.3.1
Re-instated user.js
It now works with Java 1.4
Will Sun not allow an xpi to download Java to mozilla and beonex?
I thought they were part of the open source movement - iplanet etc!!!
Why is Netscape still using Java JRE 1.3.1 which does not work on some
sites?
Does anyone have a simpler solution?
Thanks
